Description "Death rides hard in battle and its sword is sharp. Borne swifter on the wings of hate, it cares not whom it slays."

Been asked a lot lately: "What happened before "Forsaken"([link] )?"
Well...this. ^__^;;; An old sketch of Faeren and Falen from 2002. I'm too sentimental to redo it (hence all the anatomy errors and wonky style). People keep wondering how I get my pencil work so clean (the answer is an eraser, btw)...well, here's one that isn't cleaned up.

You can learn more about Faeren, Falen and "The Wars of Avenan" storyline here: [link]

Faren: "It's okay, I know of a tree somewhere that'll take care of you. Sure, she might hold you for a few thousand years, but we're elves, we can wait it out, right?"

So what if it's not perfection - it's full of emotion and passion and that's better than perfection.

It kills me when you talk about these drawings as being embarrassing. I mean, I get it, but this was the stuff I just ate up back in the day, and I still do. I remember the emotions I felt when seeing it for the first time back then, and those feelings are still there. Thank you for sharing...again.

I love how art, especially yours, can be so moving and thought provoking. ^^ Sometimes moreso than the written word, which is designed to move.
But sometimes artwork does it better. ^^ You're art is testiment to that.
